FURANYL FENTANYL
|
The fentanyl class of opioids are generally more potent than any other group of naturally occurring or synthetic opioids. What this means to non-pharmaceutical users is that very small differences in measurements can lead to catastrophic health effects. Street drugs don't come with a certificate of analysis as to their content, so small doping of heroin or cocaine with fentanyl or a chemical relative can be potentially lethal to the user.
World Health Organization 2017:
Furanyl Fentanyl is a new designer opioid drug. It is a derivative of fentanyl with two distinctive characteristics:These characteristics give furanyl fentanyl a highly risky pharmacological profile. In the last several years there has been an increase in deaths due to the use of this designer opioid. Furthermore, it has been reported that it might be present in cocaine crack and other illicit drugs sold on the black market.
- Higher liposolubility that allows its rapid absorption into general circulation

EMCDDA - Europol Joint Report 2017:
Furanylfentanyl has been available in the European Union since at least June 2015 and has been detected in 16 Member States and Norway. In most cases it has been seized as a powder, but other forms such as liquids, tablets, and herbal material have also been detected. The detected quantities are relatively small; however, they should be seen within the context of the high potency of the substance.Nineteen deaths associated with furanylfentanyl have been reported by 4 Member States and Norway, all of which were analytically confirmed. 90% of the deaths occurred during 2016. In at least 9 of the deaths furanylfentanyl was the cause of death or contributed to the death.
Information on the use of furanylfentanyl in Europe is limited. It appears that furanylfentanyl is used as a drug in its own right. However, serious concerns exist that the substance could be supplied surreptitiously to a range of drug users, including those who inject opioids
